Paper Abstract
Optical waveguide trajectories formed in an AA/PVA a photopolymer material photosensitive at 532 nm are examined. The transmission of light by this materials is discussed. The bending and arching of the waveguides which occur are investigated. The prediction of our model are shown to agree with the observed of trajectories. The largest index changes taking place at any time during the exposure, i.e. during SWW formation are found at the positions where the largest light intensity is present. Typically, such as maxima exist close to the input face at the location of the Primary Eye or at the location of the Secondary Eyes deeper with in the material. All photosensitive materials have a maximum saturation value of refractive index change that it is possible to induce, which is also discussed.
